From the hourly chart, the RSI values reveal oversold conditions, with the most recent reading dipping to 30. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram generates flat red bars, signaling sustained negative momentum. This coincides with a drop in buyer demand over the past hours, and it could set the tone for the upcoming trading sessions. However, a consolidation shouldn’t be ruled out as bears might take a breather.
